Well, i've been playing for a few weeks now here on discovery, and there is one thing that i found pretty odd, namely that there isn't any playerfaction of Ageira Tech.
I mainly find this strange since this is one of the lawfull, non military/police company's that has, in my eyes, an enormous RP potential.
This was what i was thinking, since Ageira has 2 bases, pueblo station and detroit amunations, an Ageira faction would have 2 main tasks.
1) the building and maintaining of tradelanes and jumpgates
2) the distribution of weapons in and around liberty and it's allies (bretonia, possibly kusari) aswell as supplying Ageira stations with the goods needed to operate.
now for a bit of extra info surrounding these tasks.
1)With maintaining tradelanes and jumpgates i mean that, as a sort of event, members of Ageira faction, with help of the owners of a piece of Ageira tech (jumpgate, tradelane), temporarely close the tradelane for maintainence. like in RL streets are temporarely closed and traffic diverted (or allowed on the construction site but forced to slow down drasticly, instead of taking the lane, they will be forced to use there cruise engines.) Ofcourse Ageira will not do this on it's own, but on request of local authorities.
there will also be Ageira members just flying around to "check" the status of the tradelanes/jumpgates
2) doesn't need alot of extra info, i think this part is pretty clear.
Now this is just a basic idea of how in my eyes this faction would look like. Now I didn't start to write anything to start this faction up, i would first like to hear other idea's, suggestions about my idea before i would consider starting this thing up.
Um, I believe there's already an Ageria Faction, Lane Security I think their called.
But eh, I haven't seen any activity from them lately so it may be worth a try.

sounds good, also get a DSE team to assist then, they do the real maintenance, DSE builds for ageira, Ageira developed and still constructs the prefab parts, DSE puts em togheter.

Hi there, I'm the CEO of Ageira's Lane Security Division. I'd just like to say that playing Ageira is a LOT of fun. To get an idea of what we did, take a look HERE. We had a great time doing this, but for a bit now we have put it on the back burner. We also had a trading division of Ageira, hauling gate/lane parts to the construction sites.
I'd love to see someone revive Ageira, I just have a lot of other chars. at the moment that I'm working on so I don't play Lane Sec. much anymore. And I just joined the XA, so it might be fun to have someone else to harass in Colorado. :P
I hope you do something with this, there is enormous RP potential with Ageira. If you need any help with this, feel free to PM me anytime.
-centauri5 out.
You ask me why Im weary, why I cant speak to you.
You blame me for my silence, say Its time I changed and grew.
But the war's still going on dear, and theres no end that I know...
And I cant say if were ever...
I cant say if were ever gonna be free.
so, i've been brainstorming some more, and i came up with this:
Instead of a pure Ageira faction, it would become a mixture of DSE and Ageira.
basicly it comes down to this.
the maintenance part of the faction will have DSE IFF/ID, and will mostly be flighing repair ships. They will mostly be flighing in the different houses and borderworlds, but always near tradelanes and jumpgates, they will not be allowed to move more than lets say 3K from them.
Then the trading devision. They would mostly be restricted to flying liberty transport vessels, AT's or transports/trains. Their cargo will only be weapons, gateparts, construction materials (boron, beryllium,...) and parts needed to build ships (engine comp., ship hull plates). I was also thinking of trying to convince the now still independent weaponsdealers to join our faction, so that there way of making money could become more RP like.(since Ageira is sort of a weapons dealer/builder)
Then last but not least, merge Lane Security Devision with this new faction to make one big happy RP family.
So what do you guys think, could this work or is my little dream going to shatter? ofcourse i am more than happy with any advice you guys can give me.
Come on people, i could use some extra feedback on my idea, i would like to do this, but i don't want to write a faction sheet (or what it's called) and trade for hours and hours to get the fee for making a faction just to see that there is no interest in it.
The Relation between Ageria and the nationalized trade lanes is delicate. I don't believe your concept represents that. Not only that, but there would need to be profit in whatever Ageria would do. It is a corporation, and probably answers to a board of directors and investors and such.
Why must everyone insist in bringing combat into a perfectly good trade/research faction? And worse, Moral combat! What kind of a corporation would Ageria be if it had to answer to some kind of moral athority?
Why would there be Lane Hackers if it did!
